Rhea Dawson doesn't believe in monsters-not the kind that lurk in the woods, anyway. As a paralegal who's long since stopped reaching for more, she's built a life dealing with corporate villains who should be the stuff of bedtime stories. But when a case pulls her into a small mountain town filled with honest, salt-of-the-earth people, she finds herself entangled in a mystery that defies explanation. Shadows move where they shouldn't. Eyes watch her from the dark. And the only person she can trust is Beau Forrester-a rugged, enigmatic local who seems to be keeping as many secrets as the town itself. As tensions mount between the tight-knit community and Rhea's law firm, she and Beau find themselves drawn together in ways neither of them can ignore. But the deeper Rhea digs, the more unsettling the truth becomes-not just about the case, but about her past. She's not just an outsider looking in. She belongs to this world... whether she wants to or not. Because the monsters she never believed in? They've been waiting for her all along.

A passionate advocate for the oppressed, Vee spent her days championing causes for those whose voices were silenced. Yet beneath her fiery exterior lay a woman fractured by the weight of her past.

Haunted by depression, Vee found solace only in her relentless pursuit of justice, even if it often left her isolated. Her sharp tongue and mistrust of men were weapons she wielded to protect the fragments of her wounded heart. But when she crossed paths with Lucian Vasquez, a principled prosecutor with an unyielding commitment to the law, her carefully constructed walls began to tremble. Lucian wasn't like the others she had encountered. His sense of justice mirrored hers, but his approach was deliberate and patient, contrasting with her fiery impulsiveness.
